    I received 3 emails today, from FlipKart, they are addressed with my name and they obviously have my correct email address but I did not order anything from this company. The first two emails are confirming my order of different pairs of flip flops and the third email is confirmation of cancellation of one of the pairs of flip flops. They have a foreign address for delivery, and it does not mention anywhere what the method of payment was, so it doesn't look like they are charged to me plus i checked my credit card bill online and i see no charge from this company. It is just weird that they have my email address and my correct name, so do I click on the email and send them a message that i did not order anything from them or is that perhaps what they are hoping i will do and maybe i should have just deleted them all, any advise appreciated, thanks.

    Weird as they do seem to be a legit company. just keep the email in a folder just in case.

    Sounds like phishing - do not click on the link!

    i agree, it'S probably a scam.....every now and then, i receive emails from an existing delivery compagny telling they have my parcel...bla..bla..bla....and that i must do such and such in order to have my parcel
    As i order online quite often, i found their number and phone them . They told me ''don't answer to this email, we never do that''

    If you didn't order Flip-flops then I'd say it is a scam just delete
